Scumbria,

What will happen when Katmai comes out and KNI has overlapping opcodes with 3D-NOW? Please feel free to speculate wildly.

MXi is supposed to be the Cayenne core but you never know with NSM...

Scumbria,

Re: 6x86 core for MediaGX?

Are you referring to MXi?

Just what I said, MediaGX with 6x86 core. At one point in the past, Cyrix said that that MediaGX would move up to 6x86 core. MediaGX already has the MMX/FP units from 6x86MX. It just needs the rest. At speeds of 233 MHZ and up, MediaGX would be a very good performer.

Joe

PS: MXi will have Cayenne core
